Sentiments - Feelings

Feelings, once formed, comes out in some form or the other, else keeps on creating disturbance within. 

Hence, it becomes important to let out all the feelings, be it anger, sadness, happiness, fear, disgust etc. from the mind.

Now, how these feelings are formed? They are formed with every thought crossing the mind every second, every event happening around which is connected with that particular person. They are of different types which depict different emotions of humans. The most prominent ones(in my eyes would be) - happiness, sadness, anger, fear, disgust.

Happiness, is obviously the best feeling to have. All is good around this feeling, one might feel to be on cloud nine, depending upon the level of happiness.

Sadness, arises due to disappointment, loss or fear. Once you feel sad, the whole world seems to be coming to an end. None of the things matter anymore. But as rightly said, time is the biggest healer, eventually this feeling also fades away. Nothing seems to be forever, even these little emotions. 

Anger, the most dangerous one I guess. It is said that you need to suppress your anger for a better future especially for the sake of the relationships. But what are the side effects of suppressing it or hiding it? Have those people who talk to suppressing thought about it? It might be a way to preserve relations but what about oneself? That feeling which has developed will still fight to come out and will eventually come out in some or the other form. Similar category feelings like disgust, irritation etc. would also be tough to handle. 

I thought of a way to handle this, just talk to someone who can listen to you without ifs/buts or any questions in return. But then another questions arises, where to find that someone :( ?

If at all, you have someone who understands you at the core and knows when to listen, when to question, when to comfort, when to scold, you are the luckiest I would say. Somehow, I feel everyone has a child like traits throughout the life for some moments and needs someone to coax just like a child (may be many wouldn't agree on this). This doesn't mean that you are dependent on someone but emotions are such that you need someone at times just to make yourself feel better and be a better person eventually. Since if today someone comforts you, that person will leave on impression on your heart and you will automatically, reciprocate the feelings when time comes.

Not able to understand how God has created such complexities for humans. It is hard to comprehend but he created. Mind blowing!!!

Father's Day

Father's Day - official opportunity to celebrate the presence of one of the most important person in your life.

Though I have written about my father many times (secretly :P), today I want to write at length.

My papa, like every other girl, is my superhero, person whom I look upto for everything.

Professionally, he is an engineer but his versatile skills have helped him in making his mark in variety of fields like steel industry, designing the colonies out of a big land, construction of commercial buildings like school, manufacturing units etc. By choice, he learnt the principles of vaastu and can guide you how to place things in your house, yet another unique area.

As a father, he is been amazing, caring, loving and at times strict too ;). He is intelligent and judges every situation in 360 degree manner. He is a like a life saver for me in every situation. Whenever I have a problem and cant find a solution to it... It always him, I turn to. Because I know then my brain can rest and I can agree to whatever he says... :)

Now, as I have grown up (quite a bit now, in my late thirties), I have realized that he is the outstanding person I have ever seen in my life. He is gem of a person in all respects ( I know some people might think "papa hai to asia hi bolegi.."). But I have seen and met good number of people in my life now and no one could match to the standards of my dad. As a girl, obviously, I tend to compare every person to papa and then each time I feel how good, mature and sensible he is.

He knows how to nurture the relationships. Even as a husband, I can say my mom has no complaints against him (my mom is my best friend so I know this :P ). He has always supported my mother in every aspect of life...

He will go out of his way for people who need any help from him. He has taught us to be the change we want to see in others because we dont have the power of changing others. He always says go with the flow and take life as it comes. It will be easier to spend the life because he trusts GOD too much and you often hear him saying "God is great who will handle every problem of your life!!"

Someone said about papa that "a 2 yr old kid can also enjoy in his company and a 70 yrs old will also not get bored with him, he is the man of all generations". Feels too good to be the daughter of someone of this quality. I just hope I manage to keep his name high.

My parents are like my life support systems. They have always been there and one line of comfort from them fills me with new energy to face life.

May God bless both my parents forever!! I truly feel blessed to have such parents.

When your strength becomes an issue

Each on of us is blessed with some strengths and weaknesses too. But what happens when your strength actually becomes the cause of your own trouble. Yes, that's what I mean.. your own strength starts hurting you in some way.... It is as strange as it sounds..

For example  one's strength is to understand people just too well with the course of time. In other words, one may actually start understanding their facial expressions, their body language, their expectations etc. (obviously, few traits might still be hidden well by others). And this quality helps you a lot in many spheres of life professionally and personally both.

But sometimes this causes problems.

When you know that others act differently in front of you and differently at your back, you know the hidden meaning in the way they converse or indirect messages they want to pass to you, you feel awful. You think why do you need to understand everything, why cant the mind ignore and understand only that is in front of you, why cant you be naive. It hurts.

Such a situation is peculiar and becomes tough to deal with. Your mind starts governing you that dont get carried away with such behaviour and your heart says, come-on, ignore them... you are actually stuck and then you behave in a weird manner which even you cant understand or explain. And you hate yourself for such behaviour because you cant be double faced, that is not in your nature. You can either be good or bad and not both at the same time.

And this is the time you hate yourself and get irritated by this quality of understanding people too well. This leads to the thought your mind is only in an idiotic state which forces you to think just too much.

I am not sure if someone would really understand what I am writing but it is just that I feel better after jotting it down.

Nature's ways of punishing humanity

Humans are suppose to be the most arrogant (because of obvious reasons) of all the species created by the Almighty. And interestingly, they are the ones who are affected by the tiniest, invisible form of life. VIRUS.

Yes, I am talking about the latest Coronavirus which has suddenly come into existence and has successfully shaken the daily businesses of the human beings. This proves that we dont need to do researches on creating nuclear weapons to protect the country instead we should work on how we can protect the nature so that she doesnt hit back on us in its unique ways.

They say, life is short and I believe it is beautifully complex, out of one's control and beyond our limit of understanding. It is rightly said that when you are busy making plans, life has something else in store for you. Like 3 weeks back, I was so stressed out about my daughter's exams and suddenly in a day everything changed. Ofcourse, the reason was unimaginable at that time. Yes, CORONOVIRUS became the reason.

We fight for all materialistic things for our EGO satisfaction, forgetting how small things can change your biggest of all the plans. Hence, I think we should learn to utilise our life in a meaningful way and spend quality time with our loved ones. We would never know what tomorrow will bring to us but we can surely know what we should be doing in the present.

Hope people realise these minor yet important things in life (I know all this is not new) but thought of penning it down for myself.
